Lizzie: So, Dr. Gardiner is in the city for a few days and I need to go meet her for dinner soon.
Seeing as this is a new city and the only person I know is her,
it made me realize that I don't have my number one bestie watching my back while I'm here.
And yeah, I miss Charlotte. And Jane. And...Lydia.
But anyway, no regrets. Gotta live in the here and now, so...
My name is Lizzie Bennet, and I'm going to make some new friends!
"The Lizzie Trap" Written by Bernie Su
Lizzie: So obviously the first person on this potential friend list is Gigi Darcy.
She is super sweet and nice, but I'm a little wary.
I do, after all, have dozens of videos in which I say not-so-great things about her brother,
which has me wondering why she's being so nice to me, and
also why she's allowing me to be here.
Gigi: Oh, great! You're still here.
Lizzie: Uh, yeah, for not that much longer. Is something wrong?
Gigi: No, I was, uh, just looking for some advice.
Lizzie: From me?
Gigi: Yeah, it's about grad school.
Lizzie: Oh, are you thinking of going?
Gigi: It's kind of a requirement, given my family.
Lizzie: Well, that's okay, right?
Gigi: Yeah, it's fine, there's just a lot of applications to fill out.
Lizzie: Yeah, I remember those days.
A lot of late nights writing essays.
Gigi: Do you have any advice?
Lizzie: Yeah. Don't procrastinate.
Gigi: Huh, that simple.
Lizzie: So simple, you should get started on them ASAP.
As for me, I really have to get to this dinner--
Gigi: Uh, actually, I have another problem I think that you could help me with.
Lizzie: Okay. What's the problem?
Gigi: It is a problem, uh, with studying!
Lizzie: With one of your courses?
Gigi: Yes! Exactly!
Lizzie: Well, which course?
Gigi: Uh, math.
Lizzie: Oh, I don't really think I'm the right person to help--
Gigi: Oh, no! You're perfect. You're exactly the right person to ask.
Lizzie: Okay. Well, let me--
Gigi: What are you doing?
Lizzie: Turning off the camera, what are you doing?
Gigi: I just figured Charlotte could, you know, edit this all out later.
Lizzie: Well, I think I might edit this one myself. I don't want to overwhelm her.
Gigi: Then it shouldn't matter.
Lizzie: Are you always this weird?
Gigi: I-- would that keep the camera on?!
Lizzie: Okay, what is going on here? Do you really need help with your math?
Gigi: Uh...
Well, I-- YES!
Lizzie: Um. Okay, I really need to get going--
Gigi: No, you can't!
Uh, sorry, I just-- I gotta do something really quick,
could you just take a few minutes and wrap it up?
Lizzie: I don't really have an outro yet.
Gigi: That's okay, just uh, talk about me! Yeah, I give you permission!
Lizzie: Well, I can just record something after.
Gigi: Yeah but didn't you just say not to procrastinate?
Ready, go!
Lizzie: So, is it just me, or does social strangeness run in the Darcy family?
I mean, in very different ways, of course, but seriously.
What was up with her?
I'm really not sure what else I can say about her right now, but she did just give me permission.
Given what just happened and how weird that was,
I'd better be on my toes for whatever that girl does next.
Darcy: Hurry? I don't understand--
Lizzie: Darcy!
Darcy: Lizzie.
Lizzie: I thought you were in LA.
Darcy: Uh, no, I'm uh, not.
Lizzie: Clearly.
Your sister is crazy.
Darcy: Yes.
Both: I didn't mean to surprise you.
[simultaneously] Lizzie: I'm here shadowing your company. Darcy: I'm here for a board meeting.
Darcy: I, uh, was aware.
You're shadowing Pemberley.
I hope you've enjoyed your stay.
Lizzie: Yes. This place is amazing.
Everyone has been incredibly kind.
Darcy: Even my sister?
Lizzie: Yes. In her own special way.
Darcy: I'm glad.
Lizzie: Anyway, I have to go!
Darcy: So soon?
Lizzie: I'm having dinner down by the Marina.
Darcy: May I offer you a ride?
Lizzie: Oh, that's...
that's alright, I can walk.
Darcy: The hills in this city can be quite unforgiving.
Lizzie: I've heard. Uh, but I'd like to see the city.
Darcy: Understood.
Well, I should...
Lizzie: Have, um, have a good day, Darcy.
Darcy: I'll see you around.
If there's anything I can do to make your stay more comfortable...
Lizzie: Thank you.
